Need to check which sizes they do deliver, but I got referred by Stefaan Lesage in theTech45 #256: Interfeesje PodCast. Stefaan absolutely loves this:

Recently I bumped into it again with one of the more current Delphi XE* versions and Delphi 2007: the IDE changing the DFM files without reason.
This time it was in a multi-team environment with many branches and DFM merge hell.
A few examples of properties and components getting changes:
Warren P suggests to review your DFM changes before committing to version control and I completely agree: it is the only way to ensure they are indeed unwanted changes.
There are some stop-gab things you could try, but these only partially help

It’s not reproducible yet, so I need to find out why under some rare circumstances, devenv.exe (the Visual Studio IDE) generated build.force files. Sometimes the build then fails, most of the times it succeeds.
Hopefully this has to to with non-project references.

Very interesting read:
Being involved with teaching young students to code, I have come to the tentative conclusion that many coding kids have not actually been taught programming. This has been going on for a while, so some of this cohort are now themselves teaching others. I have noticed that many people doing programming actually lack many of…

Interesting: this works through an on-line service that monitors up to 2 servers for free (including protocols like HTTP, SMTP and PING).
You can get reports at either through:

LOL:
The if syntax of your script was a bit…well, iffy.
Indeed it is:
#!/bin/bash #toggle AppleShowAllFiles current_value=$(defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles) if [ $current_value = "TRUE" ] then defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE else defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE fi killall Finder
Even the alternative if statement is:
if [[ $(defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles) == TRUE ]]
